Does anybody think there's any advantage in performance or,less importantly,economy on using 97 compared to 95? I tried it when the car was new and didn't really give it a chance but as it's now done 12000 miles and i am more aggressive with the accelerator wondered if it would now make a noticeable difference other than a psychological one.
 
My previous Golf and current Alpina both knocked if I used 95. The Golf was fussy with 97 and preferred 99. It actually stated minimum 97 on the fuel filler cap. I think the fuel economy thing is hokum though.
 
My Scirocco knocks or pinks on 95, didnt try 97 long enough to find out. Always used 99 VPower since.

Not sure with regards to a zed, but there are a few threads on this, try searching for some further info?
